First run after the triathlon. I was hesitant to try changing anything with my form as I trained before. Didn't want to cause a problem or cause an injury. Today, I decided to try running barefoot style. Still in my running shoes, but making sure I was landing on the balls of my feet and not heel striking. This felt awkward and I noticed I was landing on the forefoot, but sort of on the outer half first. I'm not sure if this technically qualifies as supination as my foot does roll back toward neutral during the step, at least it feels like it does. I also focused on keeping good posture and hip alignment (kind of feels like you're pushing your butt out). I took it very easy, but after the first lap I felt like I was running faster than normal. I didn't "feel" like it though. I felt really good. I checked my Garmin and, sure enough, I was running about an 8 minute a mile pace. Before this run, that pace was tough for me to maintain and I usually had to ease into it over the first 1/4 to 1/2 mile. I was immediately running this pace and was able to maintain it for 2 miles. I had no planned distance for this run, but decided to cut it at that point as I could really feel this working my calves and I didn't want to cause an injury. I remember hearing that you have to be very careful when switching to this style as you are working muscles in new ways that they are not used to. So, in the end, the calves felt more sore than usual, but I felt really good. I didn't feel very winded and sustained a pace that had previously been harder for me to maintain. Will continue to work this. If I can maintain this pace over a 5k I can potentially immediately knock 2-4 minutes off my time.
